When Is The 2023 Open Golf Major? Date, Venue & Start Times

When is the 2023 Open golf major will be a popular question this month? The golf season now in full swing as we approach the fourth and final major on the calendar – so we run through the Open golf dates, tees times, venue and betting with the action from Royal Liverpool golf course starting on Thursday 20th July 2023.

When Is The 2023 The Open?

One of the big golfing highlights of the season is this month as fans lock themselves in for the 2023 Open. The action for the 151st edition gets going on Thursday 20th July and will run through till Sunday 23rd July for the final day of play.

12 months ago, we saw Australian Cameron Smith win the famous Claret Jug at St Andrews in Scotland after scoring -20 over the four rounds and he’ll be back to defend his title. If successful, Smith will become the first ‘back-to-back’ Open golf winner since Padraig Harrington in 2007 and 2008. Smith is on offer @ 16/1 with Paddy Power.

The betting, however, is dominated by the 2014 Open winner Rory McIlroy, who returns to the scene of his only win in this event – the Northern Irishman can be backed at 15/2 with the best UK bookmakers ahead of the action.

World number one Scottie Scheffler is next best in the 2023 Open golf betting market at 9/1, with world number two Jon Rahm at 9/1 as the Spaniard looks to add the US Masters to his haul of golfing majors this season.
